對不起，我來晚了，讓你久等了。 |

I'm sorry for being late and having kept you waiting. |
|
|

Méi guān xi. N? jīn tiān z?o shàng shuì guò tóu le ba? |
| 麗麗： |
沒關(guān)系。你今天早上睡過頭了吧？ |
| Lili: |
It doesn't matter. You overslept this morning, didn't you? |
|
|
| Mài kè: |
Shì de, ér qiě w? zhèng h?o g?n shàng le d? chē gāo fēng qī. |

是的，而且我正好趕上了堵車高峰期。 |

Yes, I did. And I hit rush hour traffic. |

原來如此。北京通常早上道路很擁堵。 |

Oh, I see. Beijing's roads are very congested in the mornings. |

| 麥克： |
我被困在車流中。我試著打你的手機(jī)，可是占線。 |

I was stuck in traffic. I tried to call you on your mobile phone, but the line was busy. |
|
|

那會兒老板正在和我通話，布置今天的會議呢。 |
| Li li: |
I must have been speaking with Boss at the time. He called to leave instructions for today's meeting. |
|
|
| Mài kè: |
L?o b?n duì w? de chí dào yí dìng hěn shēng qì ba? |
| 麥克： |
老板對我的遲到一定很生氣吧？ |

Is Boss angry with me for being late? |

Bié dān xīn, tā méi y?u shēng qì. D? chē jīng cháng fā shēng, kě y? l? jiě. |
| 麗麗： |
別擔(dān)心，他沒有生氣。堵車經(jīng)常發(fā)生，可以理解。 |
| Lili: |
Don't worry, he isn't. Traffic jams are so commonplace now. It's understandable. |
|
|
| Mài kè: |
W? xià cì huì zhù yì de. W? zuì h?o gèng z?o yì di?n chū mén. |
| 麥克： |
我下次會注意的。我最好更早一點(diǎn)出門。 |

I'll keep it in mind for next time. It would probably be best if I set out a little earlier. |
